Thermoelectric Material for Carbon Dioxide Hydrogenation [Video]
Researchers from Cranfield University and Queen Mary University of London report the use of a thermoelectric material as a catalyst support and promotor for carbon dioxide hydrogenation. Using a specially designed reactor chamber, they achieve simultaneous thermoelectric energy harvesting and catalysis.
New System for a Cost-Effective and Fully Automated Blood Test
A team of Chinese researchers developed a cost-effective and fully automated blood counting system that can be used by trained and untrained users.
Coming Soon: TACNET 4.0
14 companies and organizations have combined forces in TACNET 4.0 – Tactile Internet, a project to create a standard system for real time industrial communications.
A Salt Water Battery
Inexpensive and stable: Water could form the basis for future particularly inexpensive rechargeable batteries.
Quantum Dot-LEDs for Next Generation Light Emitting Devices
A novel technology to display information on transparent screens offers new opportunities in next-generation electronics, such as augmented reality devices, smart surgical glasses, and smart windows.
Therapeutic Applications of Group I Intron-Based Trans-Splicing Ribozymes
Group I intron-based trans-splicing ribozyme specifically recognizes disease-specific RNA, removes the sequence downstream of the target site, and replaces it with a 3’-exon encoding a therapeutic/reporter RNA sequence, inducing therapeutic/reporter activity selectively in the target RNA-expressing cells.
